Why Nexus Blitz should stay

Nexus Blitz must be permanent in League of Legends. Its the most fun I've had in years playing this game and even if the graphics and the map in general are so bad I keep returning in this gamemode because it is so fun ! A lot of my friends love this gamemode and I know that even more people around the world do too. So this game mode has to stay. Probably the best thing you did for the game in a long time !

It reminds me of season 2 or 3 of the game when most people just went into 5v5s in Summoner's Rift to have a good time and genuinely had fun... Not like today, where more than half of the players actively wish for real life death to their teammates just becaused they died in-game one-too-many times (which is another problem you should focus on solving).

So in summary you guys did a great job with this mode and we would be more than happy to see it stay permanently.

It's so stupid.

Stupid fun that is. The shorter games give less time for resentment to fester and especially when both teams keep dogpiling eachother.

Yes. But...NEVER MAKE A NEXUS BLITZ RANKED. IT WILL KILL THE MODE.

Cause 3 reasons:

Game is so fast in building items such as urf which swing in favor of late game and early game champions.
You having fun and not seeking to hard win like in normal or ranked game in SR.
Cause there no damn routine of doing stupid baron and dragon to win game, just fun events that whole team work on not cause bot lane is hard winning and 2 can solo drake.

Reminds me of hexakill TT. It's really fun

Riot already said they intend for it to be a permanent alternative to summoners rift.

Ok sure but why8/26/2018, 3:08:44 AM6 votes

In a month, they'll completely remove the game mode forever and say, "Ohhh, people felt burnt out after playing this for a month."

Damn, I miss URF.

It definitely needs polish. As someone who was a fan of Dominion several years ago with 200+ wins, I welcome Nexus Blitz, which btw I'm omw to 200 games on Nexus Blitz. I'd like to write a review of this game. Expect a post about it later today! :D

it's only fun until the enemy team picks all poke mages

The best part is it isnt even at it's fullest potential yet, we are supposed to get a whole different aesthetic with the map later with a popular fan request being the underbellys of Zaun, there can be more events, more bonuses, maybe Rift Herald can be replaced with a large Chem-Baron machine and Eye being a dropship beckon or something of the type if they go with the Zaun theme, different jungle mobs, who's to say it will even be a jungle in all but name. I can't wait for more

It's the most fun I've ever had in League.

It's a fun game mode but needs heavy tuning.

We need this game mode back ! Please Riot... Please...

Genuinely best game mode since Dominion.

Tbh nexus blitz has massively increased my queue times and that's about the only reason I want it gone.

Sad is, if a gamemode is too much fun, it will be taken away, same reason as with urf most likely.

I can finally play Ryze to his fullest potential!

It is one of the best Game mode they have made in a long while.

Blitz honestly feels much more balanced than Summoner's Rift

The insane damage makes sense

There's strong solo carry potential

There's strong come-back potential

It's got strategy, teamwork, objectives, etc. I would actually play Ranked Blitz over SR

I wish some of my teammates were having as much fun as I am. Around 4/10 games there's always that one guy or two who start flaming everyone else thinking it's his promos like dude just have fun.

I legit went ap jarvan 4 to aery shield everyone with my e (gives attack speed and therefore gives allies aery up to 4 times per cast if u hug them) like 3 games in a row and won without anyone flaming me? I saved ppl but it was kinda troll and funny lool good times

It's just so good! I love playing TahmKench in it (saving allies/devouring enemies every 20 seconds is awsome!!)

I'm torn, I think the current iteration is bland and boring. I think so much more can be done with it. I literally just autopilot because no matchmaking so there isn't really a challenge in any game of it. The game mode might just not be for me, but the game is literally decided on which team gets the new player xD

It is a cool idea, I had fun for the first few games, and then I remembered URF exists and could have been permanent. Not ARURF, that is cancer, URF with bans.

I will say however that since I am done with ranked for the season on this account, it is a nice break to come onto this account and play nexus blitz.

The balance is way too far out of whack. My games consisted of if one team tryhards they win, if neither does who knows, if both to, then it can be competitive, but again, that's only when tryharding which limits the champ pool to a handful of champs.

I see someone say it feels more balanced than SR, but I don't see champs with like 70% win rate in SR lol. Was fun for a while, but not something I'd want to stay in its current state.

Riot Games have already said that the gamemode might be come a permanent one.

It's nice to do a few after a long night of ranked.

only if they change bardle royale, oh you're 2 kills ahead of the enemy? here's bardle royale with the ring going behind the enemy turret, enjoy giving the enemy 5 kills.
